GENERAL CALL ADDRESS

SUPPORT

The addressing procedure for the I2C bus is such that

the first byte after the START condition usually deter-

mines which device will be the slave addressed by the

master. The exception is the general call address,

which can address all devices. When this address is

used, all devices should, in theory, respond with an

Acknowledge.

The general call address is one of eight addresses

reserved for specific purposes by the I2C protocol. It

consists of all 0’s with R/W = 0.

The general call address is recognized when the Gen-

eral Call Enable bit (GCEN) is enabled (SSPCON2<7>

set). Following a START bit detect, 8-bits are shifted

into the SSPSR and the address is compared against

the SSPADD. It is also compared to the general call

address and fixed in hardware.

If the general call address matches, the SSPSR is

transferred to the SSPBUF, the BF flag bit is set (eighth

bit), and on the falling edge of the ninth bit (ACK bit),

the SSPIF interrupt flag bit is set.

When the interrupt is serviced, the source for the inter-

rupt can be checked by reading the contents of the

SSPBUF. The value can be used to determine if the

address was device specific or a general call address.

In 10-bit mode, the SSPADD is required to be updated

for the second half of the address to match, and the UA

bit is set (SSPSTAT<1>). If the general call address is

sampled when the GCEN bit is set, while the slave is

configured in 10-bit Address mode, then the second

half of the address is not necessary, the UA bit will not

be set, and the slave will begin receiving data after the

Acknowledge (Figure 15-15).
